   Bun Bun to the Rescue!!

Or not. I was chatting with Shawn (TheMouse) this afternoon and I told him I would post a picture he would get a kick out of. Brynner, as you can clearly see, is not a rescue dog. We were spending the day at the lake. The dogs went swimming, fetching sticks, chasing ducks...John rode around on the jet ski...I took pictures. When John fell off the jet ski (it's one of those stand up ones) Brynner didn't even look up. I guess you all know why I didn't name him Lassie. :P We also chatted quite a bit about Anime Expo. My question to everyone here is: Are you going to AX this year and if you are, do you want to plan to meet each other? I am thinking if there is a bunch of us that want to get together we could have lunch or even make a run through the dealer's room together in one big mob. John and I will be there for sure and we love meeting other anime fans. Let me know if you are planning on attending. I would love to meet ya! Now to close out my short post I am using a survey thingy I plundered from Solo. ANGER 1. Who did you last get angry with? Myself. When my RA flares up I get pretty down on myself and angry that my own body is doing this to itself. 2. What is your weapon of choice? My sharp tongue. I tend to say very hurtful things to people who hurt me. 3. Would you hit a member of the opposite sex? Yes. 4. How about of the same sex? Yes. 5. Who was the last person who got really angry at you? ::thinks:: I don't know. 6. What is your pet peeve? I really hate people who yell at another person for something beyond their control. For instance, when I worked at the one and only movie theater in town there was a power outage in all of the downtown area. We refunded money and gave free passes for their next visit. One guy stood in the lobby and yelled at the manager telling her it was her fault this happened. The power in the entire downtown area was down and somehow it was the fault of the manager of a movie theater...what an a**. I just wanted to punch that guy in the face for being such a jerk! 7. Do you keep grudges, or can you let them go easily? Yes, I hold grudges. I am very bad about that. When someone hurts me I never let it go. I may move on but deep down inside I can never trust that person again. SLOTH 1. What is one thing you're supposed to do daily that you haven't done in a long time? Exercise. 2. What is the latest you've ever woken up? Afternoon. I believe around 12:30. 3. Name a person you've been meaning to contact, but haven't. Mike and Aya to congratulate them on their new baby daughter Saya Bean! 4. What is the last lame excuse you made? I am terrible for making up excuses...so much to the point that I just tell the truth, which in many cases, is much lamer than a lie. 5. Have you ever watched an infomercial all the way through (one of the long ones...)? Nope. When they show those infomercials I turn the tv off. 6. When was the last time you got a good workout in? End of April. I only made a mile in 20 minutes and thought I was going to die! 7. How many times did you hit the snooze button on your alarm clock today? There is absolutely no way I can sleep in. At 5am every morning...you can set your watch to them...the dogs get up and need to go for walkies. You don't ignore 2 very large dogs when they need to go walkies! GLUTTONY 1. What is your overpriced yuppie beverage of choice? I would have to say a Grande Iced Carmel Macchiato. 2. Meat eaters: white meat or dark meat? Dark. 3. What is the greatest amount of alcohol you've had in one sitting/outing/event? 2 mudslides, 1gin and tonic, 1 blue margarita, 1 martini. John and I stayed in one night and had a few drinks and did a Cowboy Bebop marathon. He even drank a "Prairie Oyster" when we got to the "Heavy Metal Queen" episode. For those of you who don't know that was the drink Spike had at the beginning. 4. Have you ever used a professional diet company? Nope. They would just tell me I am beyond help. lol 5. Do you have an issue with your weight? Yes. I know I am too plump and I try to exercise and eat right but I just don't seem to make much progress. 6. Do you prefer sweets, salty foods, or spicy foods? Salty foods. Potato chips, french fries....salty goodness. 7. Have you ever looked at a small housepet or child and thought, "LUNCH!"? Yes. This is actually very common in vet med. When we would prep an animal for surgery and put the betadine (the brown surgical soap) on them it looks just like BBQ sauce. Tasty...anywho, for my own pets: Brynner: Excellent sourse for steaks and burgers. Brynner on a Bun. Bun on a Bun. Brynner Burgers... Heston: Definitely slow cooker or stew meat. Heston Hocks. Harrison: With his short little legs he looks like a turkey. All he needs are the little white caps for this legs and be set into a turkey pan. Thanksgiving dinner! Ana Ng: She's evil...rotten to the core...she wouldn't be good eattin'. Is it bad I have put this much thought into eating my pets? LUST 1. How many people have you seen naked (not counting movies/family)? Dozens. I use to travel with a drum and bugle corps and many of the school locker rooms we stayed at had open shower rooms (no individual stalls) so it was pretty difficult to have much privacy. 2. How many people have seen YOU naked (not counting physicians/family)? Dozens. Same reason as above. Darn locker rooms don't give much privacy. 3. Have you ever caught yourself staring at the chest/crotch of a member of your gender of choice during a normal conversation? Yes. I caught myself staring at one of the clients at the vet clinic. He, and his dog, are cryptorchid. That means that one of the testicles has not dropped down into the scrotum. I know what dogs look like when they are cryptorchid and I started to wonder what human males look like...just then I realized I was staring at the owner's "area". ::blushes:: 4. Have you "done it"? Yes. I have been married for almost 10 years and if I was still holding out I am sure John would wonder. lol 5. What is your favorite body part on a person of your gender of choice? I love eyes. They are the window to the soul after all! 6. Have you ever been propositioned by a prostitute? Nope. 7. Have you ever had to get tested for an STD or pregnancy? I have taken 2 pregnancy tests. Both after missing my "monthly visitor" two months in a row. GREED 1. How many credit cards do you own? At least 10. 2. What's your guilty pleasure store? Miller's Fine Jewelry. Local jewelry shop that I know I have spent hundreds of dollars at. 3. If you had 1 million, what would you do with it? Pay off my bills and then invest and save the rest. 4. Would you rather be rich, or famous? Rich. No doubt...rich over famous. Famous people never get a real life. 5. Would you accept a boring job if it meant you would make megabucks? Yes. I would work until I earned enough money to live comfortably and then quit. 6. Have you ever stolen anything? Yes. Office supplies (pens, paperclips). 7. How many MP3s are on your hard drive? 111 on my laptop. PRIDE 1. What one thing have you done that you're most proud of? Not giving up on myself. 2. What one thing have you done that your parents are most proud of? Getting married to John. They totally love him. 3. What thing would you like to accomplish in your life? Earn a living from my writing. 4. Do you get annoyed by coming in second place? Nope, even when I am second place in a two person race. 5. Have you ever entered a contest of skill, knowing you were of much higher skill than all the other competitors? Nope. 6. Have you ever cheated on something to get a higher score? Yes. A spelling test in 1st grade. I wrote the answers on my desk. I forgot to study for the test and I was so worried about failing I cheated. 7. What did you do today that you're proud of? I drove 2 senior citizens around town to run errands, get to the doctor, pay bills and do grocery shopping. ENVY 1. What item (or person) of your friends would you most want to have for your own? I can't think of anything that one of my friends has that I would want...I guess I would have to say my brother's music collection. It's quite impressive. 2. Who would you want to go on "Trading Spaces" with? My brother! He would totally make my house look great! I would give his bachelor pad a bit more of a female touch. (He has no plants or art on the wall...unless you count the bikini-clad girl posters from the auto shop hanging in his garage. :P ) 3. If you could be anyone else in the world, who would you be? I don't want to be anyone else...except a younger, thinner, healthier version of me. Like I was back in high school. That would be groovy. 4. Have you ever been cheated on? Nope. 5. Have you ever wished you had a physical feature different from your own? Yes. I wish I had a small waist. Abs of steel instead of abs of pudding. 6. What inborn trait do you see in others that you wish you had for yourself? Self-confidence. I wish I could be happy in my own skin...be more outgoing. 7. Do you wish you'd come up with this survey? No, not really. It was fun though. ^_^ 8. Finally, what is your favorite deadly sin? On FMA I would say Envy. In the movie Seven I would say Gluttony since it totally made me gag...that means it was a great movie visual. Otherwise I would have to say that I don't have a favorite deadly sin. After all they all have terrible eternal punishments in Hell for these sins...I would go with what I think is the lesser of the punishments and go with Envy. That is being placed in freezing water. No boiling oils, pits of snakes, or force fed rats for me!
